Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of shield tunnel technology, and specifically to a diaphragm wall structure for the passage of grinding piles in shield tunnels. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of transportation infrastructure construction, shield tunneling structures are frequently used in the construction of urban subways, highway tunnels, railway tunnels, and underwater tunnels in my country. During the construction of the shield launching or receiving end walls, diaphragm walls are often used as the retaining structure. Existing diaphragm walls typically use ordinary reinforced concrete structures with interlocking pipes and I-beam joints. Using interlocking pipe joints during diaphragm wall construction makes it difficult to control the construction quality at the joint locations and easily leads to water leakage at the joints. While using I-beam joints can improve the joint quality and effectively control water leakage, it increases the difficulty of subsequent shield portal excavation. Portal excavation is one of the key procedures for shield entry and exit, and its construction quality and safety directly affect the smooth progress of shield construction.
[0003] Traditional methods for removing tunnel portals involve using manual pneumatic picks or mechanical hammers during the launch or reception of the tunnel boring machine (TBM). However, after breaking through the concrete of the diaphragm wall, manual or mechanical removal of the exposed reinforcing steel bars within the diaphragm wall is required, which significantly reduces the efficiency of removing the TBM portal. Furthermore, this method presents numerous safety hazards and presents considerable difficulty, with sand and water surges frequently occurring during the excavation process, leading to portal collapses and other accidents.

However, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the scope of the specific embodiments. For those skilled in the art, any changes that are within the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined and determined by the appended claims are obvious.

[0025] Example 1
[0026] This embodiment provides a diaphragm wall structure for use in shield tunnel pile driving. Its purpose is to solve the problem that existing diaphragm walls require manual or mechanical removal of the reinforcing steel bars after concrete removal. (Refer to...) Figures 1-7 The specific structure of this embodiment will be described in detail below.
[0027] A diaphragm wall structure for the passage of piles in a shield tunnel includes a diaphragm wall steel cage 1 for pouring concrete.
[0028] The diaphragm wall reinforcement cage 1 includes multiple reinforcement cage bodies 2 connected in sequence, and adjacent reinforcement cage bodies 2 are connected by connecting I-beams 3.
[0029] Specifically, the reinforcing cage 2 includes an upper reinforcing cage 21 and a lower reinforcing cage 23, with a middle reinforcing cage 22 that can be directly drilled between the upper reinforcing cage 21 and the lower reinforcing cage 23; the connecting I-beam 3 includes an upper steel body 31 and a lower steel body 33, with a middle steel body 32 that can be directly drilled between the upper steel body 31 and the lower steel body 33.
[0030] In this embodiment, adjacent steel cages 2 are connected by connecting I-beams 3 to form a diaphragm wall steel cage 1. The diaphragm wall steel cage 1 is then hoisted into the foundation pit and concrete is poured into it to form a continuous wall above ground.
[0031] Optionally, the rear end of the front section of the steel cage 2 is embedded in one end of the connecting I-beam 3 and welded together, while the front end of the rear section of the steel cage 2 is directly embedded in the other end of the connecting I-beam 3.
[0032] The diaphragm wall reinforcement cage 1 consists of three sections: the reinforcement cage body 2 and the connecting I-beam 3. The shield tunnel portal is located in the middle section of the reinforcement cage body 22 and the middle steel body 32. Both the middle reinforcement cage body 22 and the middle steel body 32 are made of materials that can be directly removed by manual pneumatic picks or mechanical hammers. Thus, when breaking the concrete of the diaphragm wall, the internal middle reinforcement cage body 22 and the middle steel body 32 can be directly broken, eliminating the need for manual or mechanical removal of the exposed reinforcement in the diaphragm wall, which greatly improves the removal efficiency of the shield tunnel portal.
[0033] Specifically, both the upper section of the reinforcing cage 21 and the lower section of the reinforcing cage 23 include multiple first transverse reinforcing bars 24 and multiple first vertical reinforcing bars 25, with the multiple first transverse reinforcing bars 24 evenly fixed to the multiple first vertical reinforcing bars 25. In this embodiment, the lap joints of the first vertical reinforcing bars 25 and the first transverse reinforcing bars 24 are fixed by welding.
[0034] Specifically, the middle section of the steel cage 22 includes multiple second horizontal steel bars 26 and multiple second vertical steel bars 27. The multiple second horizontal steel bars 26 are evenly fixed on the multiple second vertical steel bars 27. One end of the second vertical steel bar 27 is connected to the bottom of the first vertical steel bar 25 on the upper section of the steel cage 21 through the connecting component 4, and the other end of the second vertical steel bar 27 is connected to the top of the first vertical steel bar 25 on the lower section of the steel cage 23 through the connecting component 4.
[0035] Specifically, the connecting assembly 4 includes a connecting clamp 41 and a connecting plate 42. The second vertical steel bar 27 and the first vertical steel bar 25 are embedded in the connecting clamp 41, and the connecting clamp 41 passes through the through hole reserved in the connecting plate 42 and is fixed by the locking nut 43.
[0036] Specifically, the second horizontal reinforcing bar 26 and the second vertical reinforcing bar 27 are made of glass fiber.
[0037] In this embodiment, the second transverse steel bar 26 and the second vertical steel bar 27 in the middle section steel cage 22 are both made of glass fiber. The use of glass fiber reinforced second transverse steel bar 26 and second vertical steel bar 27 can directly break the middle section steel cage 22 located at the shield tunnel portal when breaking the concrete of the underground continuous wall, saving process steps.
[0038] The top end of the second vertical steel bar 27 on the middle section steel cage 22 and the bottom end of the first vertical steel bar 25 on the upper section steel cage 21 are both clamped and embedded in the connecting clamp 41. The two ends of the connecting clamp 41 pass through the connecting plate 42. The connecting plate 42 is fixed by the locking nut 43 on the connecting clamp 41, thereby fixing the second vertical steel bar 27 and the first vertical steel bar 25 and connecting the middle section steel cage 22 and the upper section steel cage 21.
[0039] The bottom end of the second vertical steel bar 27 on the middle section steel cage 22 and the top end of the first vertical steel bar 25 on the lower section steel cage 23 are both clamped and embedded in the connecting clamp 41. The two ends of the connecting clamp 41 pass through the connecting plate 42, and the connecting plate 42 is fixed by the locking nut 43 on the connecting clamp 41. The second vertical steel bar 27 and the first vertical steel bar 25 are fixed, and the middle section steel cage 22 and the lower section steel cage 23 are connected.
[0040] Specifically, the middle section steel body 32 is connected to the upper section steel body 31 and the lower section steel body 33 respectively through the joint plate 5.
[0041] Specifically, the material of the middle section steel body 32 is glass fiber.
[0042] In this embodiment, the connecting I-beam 3 includes an upper steel body 31, a middle steel body 32, and a lower steel body 33 from top to bottom. The middle steel body 32 is made of glass fiber so that when breaking the concrete of the underground continuous wall, the middle steel body 32 located at the shield tunnel portal can be directly broken, saving steps.
[0043] Both ends of the middle section steel body 32 are connected to the upper section steel body 31 and the lower section steel body 33 respectively through the joint plate 5. The joint plate 5 is a rectangular plate. The joint plate 5 is connected to the upper section steel body 31 and the lower section steel body 33 by welding. Several threaded holes are opened at the joint plate 5 and the middle section steel body 32 respectively. The joint plate 5 and the middle section steel body 32 are connected by inserting bolts into the corresponding threaded holes on the joint plate 5 and the middle section steel body 32. Then, the middle section steel body 32 is connected to the upper section steel body 31 and the lower section steel body 33 respectively through the joint plate 5.
[0044] Optionally, the threaded holes on the connector plate 5 are countersunk holes, and the bolt length does not exceed the sum of the thickness of the connector plate 5 and the thickness of the upper flange plate of the middle section steel body 32.
[0045] Although the specific embodiments of the utility model have been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, this should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this patent. Various modifications and variations that can be made by those skilled in the art without inventive effort within the scope described in the claims still fall within the scope of protection of this patent.
